This week, Bruce Springsteen claimed that he was standing amount “embarrassed Americans”.
This coming from the man who sings “Born in the USA,” but the signs were there all along. Springsteen’s hit may sound like a patriotic jam, but its intention is often misheard or misunderstood. With lyrics like “So they put a rifle in my hand / Sent me off to a foreign land / To go and kill the yellow man,” the song was a political statement from the very beginning.
The anti-war/anti-America message may have been subtle then, but now Springsteen is making his displeasure with the United States known across the world. His most overt criticism of his home country came this week during a concert in Melbourne, Australia.

retire already old man
Most overrated musician ever. Sings like he’s trying to pass a volleyball. I guess making it look difficult makes it talent.
You suck i will never listen to your music ever again
Why can’t he moved to whatever country he wants to live in and leave us all be? He is actually an embarrassment to all of us patriots! What an idiot to think he is better tjan most hard working Americans? At least we are intelligent enough to know that other countries have taken advantage of us because of stupid and gullible people like him and his grouo of losers!
You and your music suck
IDIOT !!!!
Another blow hard. No one pays attention too.
Stay away. You are the embarrassment.
Bruce, Don’t you ever speak for me again. I am an American. You embarrass me by criticizing our President. I was not happy with the last President we had. I never publicly criticized him, and especially not to a foreign country. What kid of jerk are you? Never mind, just SHUT UP!
He doesn’t speak for America
